Title: Jurupa Valley, California: Tenant's Notice to Landlord Regarding Uninhabitable Premises and Demand for Immediate Repair Keywords: Jurupa Valley, California, letter, tenant, landlord, notice, premises, uninhabitable, violation of law, demand, immediate repair --- [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Today's Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, Zip Code] Subject: Notice of Uninhabitable Premises and Demand for Immediate Repair Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention the current condition of the rented premises at [Rental Property Address] in Jurupa Valley, California. Under the California Civil Code and local regulations, I regretfully inform you that the living conditions on the premises are now uninhabitable, thereby violating the applicable laws and regulations. To specify the issues and justify my claim, below is an exhaustive list of the problems that render the premises unfit for living: 1. Leaking Roof: Despite numerous attempts to address this issue in the past, the roof continues to leak, causing water damage to the interior, including the ceiling and walls. This poses a significant health risk and compromises the structural integrity of the property. 2. Plumbing Problems: The plumbing system in the property is faulty, resulting in constant leaks, drainage issues, and even sewage backups. These problems are not only unsanitary but also adversely affect day-to-day living. 3. Electrical Concerns: The electrical wiring within the unit is outdated and poses a significant safety hazard. Frequent power outages, flickering lights, and faulty outlets have become a persistent issue, risking potential fire hazards. 4. Pest Infestation: The property has been infested with rodents and insects for an extended period. Despite my verbal requests, no action has been taken to address this ongoing problem, causing significant health and safety concerns. 5. Mold Growth: Due to prolonged water damage and poor ventilation, mold has begun to grow in several areas of the rental unit. Mold poses a severe health risk to tenants, aggravating allergies and respiratory illnesses. Considering the gravity of these issues and the prolonged negligence in their rectification, I demand that immediate repairs be carried out to bring the premises back to a habitable and safe condition conforming to the laws and regulations of Jurupa Valley, California. Under the California Civil Code Section 1942, as a tenant, I have the right to terminate the lease agreement if necessary repairs are not completed within a reasonable period. However, I hope to avoid such a drastic measure by encouraging you to promptly address these concerns. I kindly request that you contact me within [reasonable time] to discuss the repairs and establish a mutually agreeable timeline for their completion. Please provide written confirmation of receipt of this notice within [reasonable time] to ensure effective communication and documentation of our correspondence. Moreover, I kindly request to be informed of any alternative accommodations in case the repairs require me to temporarily vacate the premises. I trust that you will give utmost attention to this matter, recognizing the importance of ensuring a safe and habitable living environment as required by law. Failure to address these concerns promptly may result in pursuing legal remedies available to me as a tenant. Thank you for your understanding and prompt action on this matter.
